ieved and received this amazing Man. i do not need to seek further.Thank You, InkedMaster

11/18/2007 3:03:03 AM: An excerpt from a card He sent me:'you and I are connected in a way that goes beyond romance, beyond friendship, beyond what we've ever had before.  It defies time, distance, and changes in ourselves and in our lives, and it has defied every explaination except one-When i'm with You it's like a tiny part of the universe shifts into the place it's supposed to be, and all is right with the world.'

A big hairy beast of a Man, who knows the value of a good fart and feels He has the right to large chucks of red meat. The ideal Master knows that a meal that takes hours to prepare will always be more satisfying than one heated in the microwave and knows that a relationship molded, constructed and conditioned over time will be more satisfying that instant collaring. He is patient. He pushes limits. He is always mindful that trust is earned. He makes His slave perform things she may not like but for His pleasure not for her degradation. He knows this will eventually build her self esteem even if she doesn't know that at the time. He knows that praise and reward motivates and that punishment demotivates and uses one to encourage a behavior and the other to discourage a behavior. He has the ability to laugh and actually be silly at times. He laughs often and out loud. He can laugh at Himself. His slave may have talents, experiences, or capabilities that exceed His and He uses to His advantage rather than be jealous or belittle them. He knows how to fix things or build things like cars or a backyard deck. He knows how to use a lawnmower. He is happy with women doing women's work and men doing men's work and isn't ashamed to be 'traditional' in that regard. He would rather have his woman at home. He honestly believes females are created for His delight and that they are not all blood-sucking bitches. He sometimes doesn't know which He loves more, His woman or His Harley and He treats each with equal use and care. My ideal Master would be handsome but not necessarily handsome in the TV or movies kind of way, His good looks come mainly in His self-confidence. He sees me as more beautiful than i see myself. He doesn't run away from difficulty. His property may need fixing from time to time. He doesn't tow His car to the junk yard for throwing a rod and He doesn't uncollar His slave because she pitches a fit. When He says 'I love you.' it refers to a deep emotion not a whim or a throw-away phrase and there are no conditions on His love, it is something His slave can rely upon, His love is her rock, her anchor. He is able to accept her love as something He needs, it refreshes and renews Him and He relies upon it.

Life is too short to focus on what is wrong, bad and evil.  There's plenty of that and easy to find.  More precious is to seek out the joy and beauty.

i worked with the US Geological Survey long ago when they were in charge of minerals management and part of my job was in computer modelling where we calculated dirt to coal ratios for royalty payments on coal mines operating on Federal land.  There's more dirt than coal.  No one was looking for the dirt, everyone already knew there was going to be dirt, the coal was the important part and the useful mineral.  So, in life, the ugly parts are a given, they are going to be there. We should be mining for joy.

But i was thinking that if i do this i am actually submitting to fear and i need to submit to Power.  It's Power that attracts me and to which i submit and the only thing worthy of submission is Power.
